This hotel is located in Bukit Jambul Penang, 11 minutes drive to Penang Airport Bayan Lepas or 8 minutes drive to Queensbay Mall. If you decided to stay here, it is advisable that you have your own transport to get around. We booked an executive deluxe room through Agoda and upon checking in, our room has been upgraded to a 2 bedroom suite because all their executive deluxe room has been occupied.

One setback - there's no lift access from parking area to the hotel lobby. You have to climb the hotel private stairs carrying your heavy luggage if any, unless you drop off your luggage at the hotel entrance before heading to the parking area.

We had planned to check out of the hotel at 12pm and board a train to Dongguan at 1pm to meet with one of Ben's potential supplier. However, the plan was cancelled as the supplier was unable to make it and Ben only notified us after we checked out of the hotel at 12pm. In the end, we did nothing for a half day in Guangzhou and missed the opportunity to see his supplier in Dongguan. Our initial plan was to meet with his supplier in Dongguan and then take the train to Shenzhen. Since the plan didn't work out, we purchased a last-minute ticket from  Guangzhou East Railway Station to Shenzhen Station (Price - RM 65.74 per person for first-class seat). We had our lunch together with Ben at  Chuangshan Restaurant, which is located opposite  Guangzhou East Railway Station . I had goose with roasted pork, while my partner had chicken with BBQ pork. Roasted pork is tasty and goose is flavourful but has rubbery skin. Ben's friend joined us for lunch as well. However, we have to lea...
